PrincessMommy Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Sad about this. I started listening to NPR in the 80s when I was preggy with #1 and terribly sick and I never stopped listening. It was my only link to the outside world as we didn't have a TV. https://www.npr.org/2018/04/17/528656453/npr-newscaster-carl-kasell-dies-at-84-after-a-lifelong-career-on-air RIP 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
